Mary had a cactus plant, So modestly it grew, Shooting its little fibres out It lived upon the dew. Her little brother often heard rier say it lived on air, And so he ued it up one day And placeu jt in a chair, Placed it in a chair he did, inen laughed with ghoulish glee-- Placed it in the old arm-cnair Under the trysting tree. Nor thought of Mary's lover, Who called each night: to woo, Or even dreamed they'd take a stroll, As lovers often do, . The eve drew on. The lover came, They sought the trysting tree. Where has the little cactus gone? The lover--where is he? --Ben King. Trees in the city should be in full foliage in good time this year.
